Good shots!

Never been to CC and don't know where the corner goes from where the shots were taken, but why were Ali and Dom apexing right on the white line at the cone when some other folks would've needed a taxi to get to the cone from where they were on the track ???

The cone's where the apex should be, just some of us had no idea what we were up to and didn't get near it all day :D Turning in in the wrong place is the main culprit, turning in too early is comfortable, but do that and you've apexed early and starting drifting out by the time you're round to the proper apex. Usual trackday nervous/cluelessness :)

Yep, nice and low to the ground so he has less distance to fall off :lol:

What a pro :biaggi:

Them were the days; Brakes that worked,Oil that stayed in the engine,A right wrist that worked and a wife who spoke to me.

Kind words TP.Style courtesy of my local roundabout

:lol:

I must be the only person on the planet who hasn't done this roundabout surfing thing!! I nearly ran over an idiot doing it in my car near Westerham a few weeks ago! He had no idea what he was doing, I was tempted to pull over and give him a slap!

You might know him Griff, he was on a ZX6R :lol:
